    Qawi lost a UD to Michael Spinks and then beat the brakes off of a shot Leon Spinks live on ABC. I'll never forget watching him laugh and taunt Leon while punishing him him the corner.

    - Austin Trout fought both Charlo brothers.
    - George Groves fought both Paul and Callum Smith.
    - Daisuke Naito fought Daiki and Koki Kameda.

    I wonder if someone fought more than 2? Here, I suspect there might not be one.

    Didn’t Joe Frazier take on Muhammad and Rachman Ali at the same time in a studio interview?

    Jack Smith fought 3 of the Sands brothers: Alfie, Clem and Richie.
    Freddie Mueller fought Frankie, Billy and Pete Petrolle.
    And Stanislaus Loayza fought the same 3 Petrolle brothers.

    ... probably several other such examples - though none immediately springs to (my) mind.
